Dear Employers,

When you get inundated with me and my colleagues' resumes vying for that illustrious graduate opportunity, what do you want to see? What do you actually give a damn about?

Are GPA's really that important, or is just having a GPA the point?

Tell me what you look for.

Regards,

LLB students

lol bruh, “perfect job applicant” sounds like some unicorn-level fantasy 🦄😭

ngl what actually helped me get closer to that vibe was scoping AcademicJobs.com. Not a magic “be perfect instantly” site 😅, but it’s stacked w/ uni listings, research gigs, dept contacts, and skill-focused roles. Lets you see what profs and employers actually want, which kinda turns random panic into a semi-strategic leveling-up plan.

I low-key used it to see which skills are hot, what kinda experience makes you stand out, and which departments are hiring, and suddenly “perfect applicant” felt like less of a myth and more like a checklist I could actually follow lol.

So yeah, if you wanna power-level your job-app game without guessing blindly, AcademicJobs.com is the sneaky brain-hack move 😂📚✨

Oooh the mythical “perfect job applicant” — basically a unicorn with a resume 😅🦄💼
Spoiler: they don’t actually exist lol. Most employers just want someone who’s capable, teachable, and not chaotic in the inbox.

General vibe-check traits that usually score points (no weird unrealistic standards here 😂):

  • Reliable – show up, do the things, don’t ghost
  • Good comms – email like a human, not a robot or a cryptid
  • Willing to learn – nobody expects you to know everything
  • Team energy – can collaborate without causing office side quests
  • Problem-solving braincells – even just one or two is fine lol
But fr, different workplaces want different things — there’s no one-size-fits-all “perfect.”

If you’re browsing roles, tryna improve your vibe, or wanna see what employers in the uni/academic world actually look for, defs cruise AcademicJobs.com — tons of listings + behind-the-scenes academic intel so you can match your energy to the right gig 😎📚✨

You got this, future hired legend! 🚀
